The Metrix
Overview I've written two previous articles assessing different milestones I've achieved on Vocal. The first of these articles - Batting a 1,000 - was written on the occasion of reaching 1,000 reads on the platform. The second article - The Good, the Bad & the Unexpected - marked the publication of my 100th "story" on Vocal. Each of these articles provided an analysis of my "performance" on Vocal and I teased an upcoming article that would address the metrics that I use to track my activity and its relative success (or lack thereof). This is that article: The Metrix.

Welcome to Cartagena
First Encounter It was on February 12, 1990, that we arrived off the coast of Cartagena. President George H.W. Bush was scheduled to be there for a much-lauded "anti-drug cartel summit". At that time, Colombia was considered among the most dangerous countries in the world and the center of the cocaine production industry. The United States was, of course, the center of the cocaine consumption industry. Thus, 4 heads of state convened for a meeting about their shared concerns.

Prompted: #5
INTRODUCTION It's time for another Writer's Challenge! I present you with Prompted #5. On the heels of an exciting fiction challenge, the pendulum is swinging back to poetry. The last poetry challenge was a tough one, with rather complex requirements. Although it generated some great entries, the participation dropped considerably.
